The trip was great and both the drivers were safe drivers (Noah and Mohammed). The Guide was Brilliant too. KArnak Temple was given too much time and can be reduced.

Performance in accordance with the description. As everywhere in Egypt tips are required for everything, but overall the day was beautiful. The sites, the ancillary services, the guide, everything was perfect. A little downside on the drivers, but here too it is the local custom, it drives a bit any way.😉
Merci beaucoup pour votre superbe avis ! 🌟 Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez passé une journée magnifique à Louxor et que les sites, les prestations et votre guide aient été à la hauteur de vos attentes. Nous prenons note de votre remarque concernant les chauffeurs, et nous apprécions votre compréhension des coutumes locales 😉. Votre enthousiasme nous fait très plaisir, et nous espérons vous accueillir à nouveau pour d’autres découvertes inoubliables en Égypte ! 🇪🇬✨
A really fabulous trip which is definitely worth the many hours of travelling. Egypta Travel were very good on communications leading up to the trip, and answering questions. The minibus turned up 20 minutes late however (and given it was a 04.45 pickup the lateness was annoying!) but the rest of the day more than made up for it, and to be fair, even that early, the company was responding on Whatsapp which was very reassuring. The minibus was functional and there were only 8 of us so we had space….if the bus had been full spending nearly 9 hours in it would have been a challenge. Lets just say “cosy” & if you are very tall think carefully…. The guide (Sherif) was incredibly knowledgeable and made the day super fun as well as interesting/informative. The programme was great & didnt feel rushed. Everything ran smoothly. I definitely recommend this trip - really good fun!!
Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a detailed and helpful review! 🌟 We’re really happy to hear that your **Luxor day trip** turned into a fabulous and memorable experience, and that the long travel hours were worth it in the end. It’s great to know that our team kept communication clear and reassuring, even at 4:45 AM — though we truly apologize for the late pickup. We understand how frustrating that can feel so early in the morning, and we appreciate your patience. We’re delighted that the small group made the long ride more comfortable, and even happier that **Sherif** made your day fun, smooth, and full of knowledge — he’ll be thrilled to hear your praise! Thank you again for the warm recommendation. We’d love to welcome you back for more adventures anytime you return to Egypt! 🇪🇬✨

Had an educational, exciting and good day from start to finish. The drivers and guide were extremely service-minded, welcoming and professional. Everything was perfect
Tak for din flotte anmeldelse! Det glæder os at høre, at du havde en lærerig, spændende og god dag hele vejen igennem. Vi sætter stor pris på dine rosende ord om vores chauffører og guide – det motiverer os til at fortsætte med at levere service i topklasse. Tak fordi du valgte os! 🌟
Pick up was as agreed and tour included everything that was mentioned. I paid online in advance and yet I was asked by 3-4 for drivers/ guides to pay more and had to always fight for my rights. I paid in advance also for Tutankhamen tomb and boat ride, yet I was asked more money for these on site and again fight for my rights. Traffic in Egypt is crazy and we had two close by accident situations. Luckily nothing happened. There's many operators in Hurghada and I would put my money else where.
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re glad to hear that the pick-up and tour met your expectations. However, we deeply regret the issues you faced regarding additional payment requests and the inconvenience this caused you. This is certainly not the experience we aim to provide, and we will take your comments seriously to ensure such situations are addressed. We also understand how stressful traffic can be, and we’re relieved that no accidents occurred. We truly appreciate your feedback and will work hard to improve the experience for future guests. We hope you’ll consider giving us another chance in the future.
Amazing trip and worth every penny. Me and my partner booked this trip and at first were a bit skeptical as we saw some poor reviews elsewhere. But all our expectations were exceeded and this turned out as a highlight of our trip. It was an early start at 04:00 am however driver was on time and supplied drinks and snacks for the journey. We also had stops if needed for the toilet and drinks. Upon arriving we met our tour guide, we are not too sure what her name was but she said to call her GoGo. She was amazing and knew everything about all the different locations. She bought us gifts and snacks for free as well. We booked the option that include both Tuttukamun and the Nile boat ride and reccomend both of the additional activities. If you are visiting Hurghada do not miss out on this amazing trip.
Thank you so much for your fantastic review! We’re thrilled to hear that your trip exceeded expectations and became a highlight of your journey. It’s wonderful that the early start and the comfort provided, with drinks and snacks, helped make your experience enjoyable. GoGo sounds like an incredible guide, and we’re so happy to hear she made the trip even more special with her knowledge and kindness. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back for more unforgettable adventures in the future!
